This is why spending has to be cut. Any government program, no matter how well intentioned, is perverted into something foul. Medicare should be cut back to pay for a small group of clearly necessary services and nothing else. Its not just these sex change operations that are at issue. You seek commercials on TV where pretty much anyone can get a mobilized wheelchair that is fitted out like a Rolls Royce and the commercial tells you that Medicare will pay for it. All this crap needs to be cut out.

So you’re a guy who likes hairdressing or a gal who likes fixing motorcycles. Enjoy your hobbies and accept that God made you a little different than what is common for your gender. Doesn’t mean you have to go mutilating yourself.
